I've been a happy customer of ARP Networks [0] for about five years now (running Linux, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD hosts). I've pretty much moved everything off to my own servers (since I work for an ISP and can put whatever I want in our datacenters) but I do still have one VPS hosting a few websites.

Native IPv6 is enabled on every host which, as a network engineer, is a huge plus for me. Physical location is at One Wilshire in Los Angeles and ARP has great connectivity and lots of peering.

It's a small operation which, depending on your point of view, can be either a good thing or a bad thing. There is no "instant provisioning" (or wasn't, the last time I ordered a new host) so it may take a day or so for your host to be available for your use. On the other hand, you can often catch the owner in #arpnetworks on freenode and chat directly with him (or get quick answers to (general) questions from other happy customers). He's also on HN occasionally, if memory serves.
